Steve McCurry Curated

Since the weather is to people what the waters are to fish, their preoccupation with it serves a unique purpose, constituting a social phenomenon all its own.

The boat sails on, buffeted by the winds, tossed by the waters, drenched by the heavens—its inhabitants subject not only to the physical effects of the weather but to its metaphysical sway as well.

People love weather as an unrivaled spectacle and fear it as an unrivaled destroyer. One day they curse the rain, the next they dream of walking in it barefooted with a lover.

No wonder, then, that man’s great dream
has been some day to control the weather.

Every year brings fresh reminders of the weather’s power over human life and events in the form of horrifying tornadoes, hurricanes and floods.

If weather were as predictable as holidays and eclipses,
what in the world would everyone talk about?

All quotes by Frank Trippett – Time Essay

Home is the nicest word there is.

– Laura Ingalls Wilder

Home is where one starts from.

– T.S. Eliot

It takes a lot of living to make a house a home

It doesn’t make any difference how rich you get to be

How much your chairs and tables cost, how great your luxury

It isn’t home to you though it be the palace of a king,

Until somehow your soul is wrapped round everything.

– Paraphrase of Edgar Guest poem, Home

A  home is one of the most sacred of places.  It is a sanctuary into which men flee from the world’s perils and alarms. It is a resting-place to which at close of day the weary retire to gather new strength for the battle and toils of tomorrow. It is the place where love learns its lessons, where life is schooled into discipline and strength, where character is molded.

– J.R. Miller

All journeys eventually end in the same place, home.

– Chris Geiger

He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A man travels the world in search of what he
needs and returns home to find it.

– George Edward Moore

Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like home.

– John Howard Payne

This world keeps spinning and there’s no time to waste
Well, it all keeps spinning, spinning ’round and
’round and upside down
Who’s to say what’s impossible…
– Jack Johnson

I’m always trying to turn things upside down to
see if they look any better. 
– Tibor Kalman

At some stage in most people’s lives,
things turn upside down, and
nothing is as you expected it to be. 
– Susanne Bier 

In dreams, anything can be anything, and
everybody can do.
We can fly, we can turn upside down,
we can transform into anything. 
– Twyla Tharp 

I’m interested when things are upside down – because
there are so many possibilities in that one moment.
There is a lot that is exposed. 
– Anna Deavere Smith 

When you’re playing upside down,
it takes twice the strength. 
– Tommy Lee 

I like to turn things upside down, to watch
pictures and situations from
another perspective. 
– Ursus Wehrli 

Yes, you can lose somebody overnight, yes,
your whole life can be turned upside down.
Life is short. It can come and go like a
feather in the wind.

The world is wrong side up.
It needs to be turned upside down in
order to be right side up. 
– Billy Sunday

Of all the hardships a person had to face,
none was more punishing than the
simple act of waiting.

– Khaled Hosseini

Often the act of waiting is anything but simple.
Many people hate to wait because they are
waiting to do something, or to go somewhere.

Waiting doesn’t seem like an act, but the lack of action;
however, the decision to be patient and
willing to wait is an act of courage and perseverance.

A person who is a master of patience is a
master of everything else.

– George Savile

Endurance is patience concentrated.

– Thomas Carlyle

Patience is the companion of wisdom.

– St. Augustine

Come what may, all bad fortune is to
be conquered by endurance.

– Virgil

People count up the faults of those who keep them waiting.

– French Proverb

There is no greater joy nor greater reward than to make a fundamental difference in someone’s life

-Sr. Mary Rose McGeady

Joy can be real only if people look upon their life as a service,
and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happiness.

-Leo Tolstoy

Shared joy is a double joy

-Swedish Proverb

Find joy in everything you choose to do. Every job, relationships, home…it’s your responsibility to love it, or change it.

-Chuck Palahniuk

To get the full value of a joy you must have
somebody to divide it with.

-Mark Twain

Joy is looking and comprehending is nature’s most beautiful gift.

-Albert Einstein

Let a joy keep you.
Reach your hands and take it when it runs by.

-Carl Sandburg

Find ecstasy in life;
the mere sense of living is joy enough.

-Emily Dickinson

Joy is not in things;
it is in us.

-Richard Wagner
